“Dirkshof is happy to support where we know that aid will arrive 1: 1 and that value will be created directly on site,” explain Thoma and Dirk Ketelsen. “With its roots in agriculture, Dirkshof is of course on the same wavelength as the school-food project in Africa. We are pleased that we can select and support the Nkagisang Primary School directly and individually and hope to be able to visit it soon.
Freely based on the Dirkshof mission statement: Do something good and also like to give something, talk about it and thus become a role model for other fellow campaigners. "
Sustainability, energy generation from natural resources and local added value – these are the goals that the Dirkshof team from Schleswig-Holstein around Dirk and Thoma Ketelsen have pursued for more than 30 years. In the meantime, the former organic farmer and initiator of wind energy generation is internationally successful in renewable energy projects.
The non-profit organization FEED – Food, Education, Energy and Development in South Africa, founded in Hamburg in 2020, is pursuing the same goals for the fight against malnutrition, for access to education and for the creation of new life and work prospects in South Africa.
